what logs have you been chopping today!

A few pictures of our last few weeks, we're flat out cutting at the moment which is nice. The big logs on the trailer are to be split into lengths .

 

hehe 200kg up front on that 35, must be a pig to steer when the back end is empty. Nice setup mate.

Done no logs today, had to get on delivering all day - catching up from the boss being on holiday last week.

 

But yesterday, I was doing a 'little' bit of elm. I mean little as in, I've never known to swear at a piece of wood so much in my life!!!!!

 

Ok, people say it get tougher to cut / split as it ages, but this must have been felled in the 1800's, it that hard!!!!

 

Harder than eucalyptus?

Not done any euc' yet (there's some buried in our pile somewhere though), but have been warned about it.....

Steer clear, not worth the effort in my opinion.

Thanks, it is . It still lifts the front end not the processor anyway, and it's on extra large tyres to get the pto at less of an angle. Still it's nice to have a proper tractor around.

Hi mate good to see the old tractors still going well thanks Jon

eucalyptus especially the larger butt ends are a pig not only for splitting but cutting aswell and i find its quite a heavy wood aswell when green, i find it burns quite well

The first pic is off some lovely oak I waz chopping by axe!!

Mainly as the wood was riddled with metal and screws, thankfully who dropped it off cutt it up small so they could lift it so I didnt to go near it with a chainsaw!!
